It’s OK

Still trying to figure out the app.

Response from developer

Please let us know if you have any issues or feedback: support@glycemicsnap.com

What??

You’re asking me to rate this app 2 mins after down loading it????

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback, and we hope you'll enjoy the app after trying it out a bit!

Difficult to edit meals

I like the concept but I’ve tried to edit the content of two meals and it is not user friendly. One I had to type in several times before it was correct, and I still can’t correct the second one.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! We're always working to improve the editing experience. Could you let us know which food item you're having trouble correcting? You can reach us at support@glycemicsnap.com we'd like to look into it and get it sorted for you.

Questionable accuracy

The app doesn’t seem to be able to factor portion size very well. I did some test with my pizza recipe. The first gave me a GL of 25 solely because of the refined dough. So I dropped the amount of dough in the recipe, but the GL didn’t change. It gave me the same GL when I entered 54g of dough, when I entered 0.5g of dough, and even when I entered 0g of dough. I also tested it by entering a ridiculously high amount of tomatoes (500g). That also didn’t change the result. Then when I looked at the nutritional info, that just didn’t make sense. My pizza with 54g dough was listed as having 280 calories. The one with 0.5g was listed as 250 calories. I’m pretty sure 54g of refined bread dough has more than 30 calories.

There are other glitches too, like when you scan a box of crackers, the app thinks you are going to eat the whole box. And sometimes you get nonsensical results- 20g of tomato basil wheat thins has a higher GL than 30g?

I just don’t trust the information I get.

Plus it is t super easy to use. You can’t go back and edit any of the recipes or manually entered meals. You have to do an entirely new entry. And you can’t even copy the previous entry. And when you ask the AI something (ex- add a salad to my meal) it will tell you something (ex- yes, that will drop the glycemic load) but it won’t recalculate the meal.

Honestly, you can’t get the same info from google

Response from developer

Thanks for the detailed feedback — you've raised valid points. You're right that changing ingredient amounts should update the GL and calorie numbers. Currently the analysis is calculated once and the chat can't recalculate when you modify portions. The packaged food issue (assuming the whole box) and the inability to edit meals are also problems we're aware of. Our next update will fix all of these. Feel free to reach out at support@glycemicsnap.com if you'd like to know when it's live.

Forced planning actions

I simply wanted an app that could quickly search and identify glycemic index of various foods. This stupid thing required an extensive set up of a profile that I was not interested in. I never even got to a state where I could search for glycemic information.

Response from developer

The brief onboarding helps calibrate the app to your profile so scan results and GI data are more accurate for you. It takes about 60 seconds, and you can start searching and scanning glycemic values immediately after.
